SANDESTIN — After nearly 20 years of business, Another Broken Egg Café is more popular than ever.

And not just in Northwest Florida.

Another Broken Egg Café already has opened four restaurants around the country this year, and plans are in place for another six in the coming months.

“People enjoy the quality and the uniqueness of our menu,” said Nick Binnings, the company’s vice president of brand development. “We go out of our way to create some pretty incredible breakfast dishes.

“Ron Green, the founder, is a very detail-oriented type person,” Binnings added. “His motto is nothing short of right is right. What we mean by that is we want to go out of our way and create an incredible guest experience. We want to deliver a very high quality meal that people feel is worth the value, and we deliver great customer service.”

Ron Green opened the first restaurant in 1996 Ron Green in Mandeville, La. His brother Tommy opened the second restaurant two years later in Destin.

Ron Green started offering Another Broken Egg Café franchises in 2006. The first franchise restaurant was opened soon after by Jake Alleman in Lafayette, La.

Today there are 32 corporate- and franchisee-owned Another Broken Egg Cafés around the country, most of them in the Southeast. Another franchise in Raleigh, N.C., is expected to open in the next two weeks.

“If we keep up with our current development pace, we will have 100 restaurants in operation by the end of 2017,” Binnings said.

Another Broken Egg Cafés also are coming to Jacksonville in midsummer, Boca Raton in late April, Siesta Key and Lakewood Ranch this summer and Dallas later this year.

The corporate headquarters for Another Broken Egg Café moved to Grand Boulevard at Sandestin last year. The resort will get its own restaurant in June.

“Another Broken Egg is the perfect complement to Grand Boulevard’s restaurant family,” Stacey Brady, a spokeswoman for Grand Boulevard, said in an email. “Known for their fantastic breakfast menu, this will be a very popular morning and lunch meeting place. I’m excited to have a great place to get a cup of coffee in our Town Center.”
